What Does This Error Mean?

AEG induction hob touch controls not responding are almost always caused by the child lock being active. Hold the Key or padlock symbol for 3 seconds to unlock. Moisture on the glass panel also causes unresponsive buttons.

How to Fix It

  1. Deactivate the child lock

  2. Dry the control panel surface

  3. Remove objects from the panel

  4. Power cycle the hob

  5. Check for the Pause or Stop+Go function

  6. Contact AEG service for hardware failure

Frequently Asked Questions

AEG induction hob controls work but one button does not respond — why?

A single unresponsive button on an otherwise working panel suggests a localised touch sensor fault on the glass panel or the underlying touch IC. This usually requires panel replacement.

AEG induction hob activates zones by itself — is the touch panel faulty?

Phantom activations are almost always caused by moisture on the glass surface. Dry the panel thoroughly. If phantom touches persist with a dry panel, the touch controller is failing.

AEG induction hob child lock activated by itself — is that possible?

Yes. Some AEG hobs auto-engage the child lock after a period of inactivity, or after a power interruption. This is a safety feature. Hold the lock button for 3 seconds to release it.
